All of my 3 kids have had their education severely hampered and disrupted by @fordnation and @Sflecce in the past 12 months. An unannounced claw back of 83% to the oldest's OSAP, failures to negotiate in good faith with teachers resulting in strike days and now...
complete disregard for all kid's health and safety #UnsafeSeptemberON . By the time the next prov election rolls around, all of them will be old enough to vote. Add to that my traditionally Cons voter boomer relatives because they're now "embarrassed" by your party.
I have siblings as well who have teens who are just as pissed and those teens will vote. This is what we call #newmath @Sflecce . Extrapolate that into the number of On families who are as fed up with your laziness and ineptitude to work with education professionals.

2. From my post: "Because of the way the math was done at the caucuses, many precincts wound up with an extra delegate that got 'assigned' to one of the candidates at the end of the caucus. We were able to look at worksheets from 18 precincts that were posted on Twitter." #Iowa
3. "We found a strange process where numbers below .5 were being rounded up in multiple precincts. 6 of the precincts (1/3) had the unusual 'rounding up.' Of the 6 precincts with the "rounding up" - 4 were given to Buttigieg, 2 to Biden, and 1 to Warren. #IowaCaucuses #NewMath

In my debate with @PeterRoskam earlier this week he told some real whoppers about taxes and the impact of his tax bill on the district. They are talking points completely unbuttressed by facts. But facts matter. So here's a thread...
2/ First, he repeated his line that the "average median" family in #IL06 earns $135K/year. This is wrong in three really important ways. roskam.house.gov/media-center/p…
3/ (a) The average family in #IL06 earns $125K. (b) The median family in #IL06 earns $97K. (c) "average median" isn't a thing. census.gov/mycd/?st=17&cd… #factsmatter #mathisreal
